ULTHMOK Natural Gynostemma Tea-Jiaogulan Tea 8 Oz, Reseable Bag.100% Natural Dried Loose Leaf Tea,No Addictive.

I was surprised. The tea was of the quality that I would expect from a respected online tea dealer. The price per pound is very reasonable and in line with bulk tea prices, even cheaper than some merchants.I was hesitant to buy after reading the reviews. One review said the tea was bitter. I think the user did not know how to prepare green tea.Green tea is not like black tea and many herbal teas. DO NOT USE BOILING WATER. Green tea should be steeped at 170 degrees Fahrenheit or 76 degrees Celsius - no higher - for only 3 minutes - no longer.Going higher or longer will cause the tea to be bitter. Professional tea salespersons will tell you that you can 'burn' the tea and make it better if you do not follow those directions.You can 'reuse' the tea as the page suggests, but it will not taste as good. If you make it properly, it is a good tea.

I heard about this tea from a homesteader who grows it in the Appalachian Mountains. He visited China in the Peace Corp and traveled to areas where they drank this tea. Studies showed high amounts of people living to 100 in these areas so they nicknamed it the "Tea of Immortality." The packaging says "it's called southern Ginseng Tea in China. With a name like that, I had to try it. After some research, I found it has a lot of health benefits! Ginseng tea has many health benefits so Ginseng tea could be similar. It's like a strong green tea but very drinkable. I was expecting something much more bitter, but that's if you steep it too long I could see it turning bitter. I hope this review helps. Just remember locals call it the "Tea of Immortality", I think its worth it.

My friend who is very knowledgeable in herbal teas/medicine told me to buy this tea and I really love it. The taste is very neutral, I make a large pot daily with some fresh ginger and drink it all day. I personally like the flavor much more than green tea plus I don’t get heart burn which I get from most teas.

I bought this brand of jiaogulan tea in August 2025. We used these tea leaves only once then threw the entire bag away because the leaves were so dirty that the tea was like opaque brown mudwater. We had to rinse the leaves thoroughly before the brown went away. This was the first time that I bought this brand. Based on this experience, I would not buy this brand again.

Take it from me.....drink this every day and let it do its perfect work as the herb of immortality that it is. Just trust me. I'm a total herb freak (I mean that in the best possible way) Look up Gynostemma and see all it's benefits. And, you'll sleep great!
